Family Field Trip.

My mom and dad have lived in California their entire lives, but there's an alarming number of local gems that they've yet to experience. My brother and I are always talking about how we need to remedy that and yesterday, we got them out of their little corner of the neighborhood to spend an afternoon at one of my favorite places in LA, The Griffith Observatory. Neither of them had ever been!

We made it just in time to watch the sun set before we toured the different exhibits inside and my brother and I shared tidbits of knowledge that we've picked up from college astronomy classes. Our parents (and Nicole, my brother's girlfriend) were so impressed. ;)

That would be such a neat thing to see! I know there's an observatory in the Hancock center in Chicago, but that's over an hour away. There's also a planetarium (which is one of my favorite places in Chicago), but again, it's kinda far. Not for weeknight trips.

Also, I love that picture of your parents.

I'm glad you're making the most of your good days, and I hope you can find some long-term relief soon. <3
